It seems like Grisoft, the developers of AVG Anti-Virus, are giving away a copy of AVG 7.5 Professional for free in a promotion that ends January 17th. The retail price for this product is $29.95 for a one year subscription. There is no word on the page with the offer for how long it will be possible to update the software to the latest professional version.
The offers is only valid for non-commercial use and good for one PC at a time. I guess there is nothing wrong in downloading AVG 7.5 Pro for your computer and that of another user.
The download link is slow. I had a hard time downloading the file and the website seems to be going down / become unresponsive frequently and I strongly suggest that you use a Download Manager to download the file. Some mirrors have been posted at Cybernet news which is a respected site. The links point to Rapidshare and Megaupload however and I would not use them.
The size of the download is 37 Megabytes and I’m currently downloading it with a speed of 20 K in Orbit Downloader. I will install AVG 7.5 Pro after the download finishes and update this article if any more information come up.

Martin I want to make things clear or be clear..
Is grisoft giving it away or Computer Active Magazine giving the pro version away?
I asked is that your link is not a Grisoft Official one but from Computer Active… and I didn’t find any news on Grisoft.com that their giving it away for free..
Thanks though for this info..
Vance I suppose that there is an agreement between Grisoft and Computeractive. Maybe it was announced in the mag only which would explain why Grisoft did not mention it on their homepage.
I mean, who would buy the software if you could get it for free ? This is in my opinion a leaked promotion that was not intended to become public on the Internet.
Nice find Martin. The download site is now totally frozen. Here’s a link to a couple of mirror sites that I found:

@Martin ah ok. Well DivX 6 Pro was also made available for free this month and it was posted on the official site so I was curious why Grisoft haven’t posted any news about this promo.
Thanks for this as always.
Would anyone like the copy of the program to download. After waiting for an hour and a half to download i finally got it only by using an ftp program to get into their server and download it. So if you want a copy of the program email me at srp333@inbox.com
is there any more information about the AVG Pro?
like the extending of licenses so on?
